with the Microsoft Quantum platform
Microsoft Quantum
platform
works with the world's most powerful quantum machines
The Microsoft Quantum Development Kit (QDK) is an open-source developer toolkit for building quantum applications. It provides everything needed—from simulators to a modern programming experience—for developers to build and execute quantum code, both locally and on quantum hardware.
The future of quantum computing
Integrated chemistry applications
Nature is quantum, and chemistry is quantum mechanics in action. The simulation of quantum systems in chemistry and materials science is where quantum computers are likely to first deliver true advantage.
Your tools, all in one place
The QDK is integrated with VS Code and GitHub Copilot to help you write, test, and execute quantum code. Microsoft’s QDK installs and runs on laptops, and GitHub Copilot makes it quick and easy to get started.
Precise control
The Microsoft Quantum platform includes an innovative quantum operating system that helps customers manage, control, and monitor the quantum device while integrating with Azure for enterprise security and governance.
Running on realtime error correction
The Microsoft quantum engine orchestrates quantum hardware, integrating advanced error correction techniques to detect and correct physical qubit errors in real time for reliable, scalable quantum computation.
Powered by dynamic error correction libraries
Microsoft’s advanced error correction software continually monitors for errors and corrects them on the fly. These dynamic error correction libraries and protocols are built into the platform, allowing quantum computations to proceed with far fewer mistakes than uncorrected qubits would allow.
Computing with qubits
Quantum entanglement correlates qubits so that the state of one instantly reflects the state of another.
Built for scale
Computing with atomic arrays offers an easy and fast path to quantum computing at scale.
A full-stack solution for quantum computing
Microsoft offers a holistic quantum platform that securely combines quantum hardware options with integrated software tools and Azure’s cloud infrastructure.
The world's first 50 logical-qubit commercial offering
Built together by Microsoft and Atom Computing, this commercial offering is the first end-to-end Level 2 quantum platform integrated with Microsoft Discovery.
A full technology stack
The Microsoft Quantum platform comes with hardware, middleware, hybrid quantum-classical development tools, lower-level development tools, AI agents, system governance and management, and cloud connectivity.
Powerful tools for developers of quantum applications
The Quantum Development Kit (QDK) includes simulators, a resource estimator, and inline debugging. Integrated with VS Code and GitHub, the QDK includes powerful agentic Copilot support to help you learn and write quantum code faster than ever before.
Support for quantum workloads with precision and resilience
Microsoft's quantum operating system manages and runs Atom Computing's hardware via our universal quantum engine and qubit-virtualization system for error correction.
Digital resources for skilling
Access online tutorials, documentation, and examples to learn the fundamentals of quantum computing at an individualized pace. Gain skills to design and optimize quantum algorithms.
Commitment to deep research partnerships
Microsoft aims to help customers drive economic value through follow-on programs, research, and training.
